5-star hotel guide to New Delhi
For many, India's teeming capital is merely a gateway to destinations like Agra, Jaipur and Shimla, yet New Delhi offers far more than meets the eye. It's a city of memorable contrasts, where European-style tree-lined boulevards give way to colourful markets and historic monuments.
For starters, there's the UNESCO-listed Humayan's Tomb, a stunning royal mausoleum that predates the Taj Mahal. And do not miss a visit to the Red Fort, a vast 17th century structure built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. When staying in Delhi, a great hotel in an excellent location is a prerequisite: Luxury Explorer's selection of Delhi delights includes Taj Mahal Hotel and the newly renovated The Oberoi, New Delhi, both offering unrivalled levels of service and comfort.
